Hi Mark,
Thanks for your reply. Do I need to perform following tasks to upgrade
Bayesian database? As suggested in the UPGRADE file?
======================================================
Due to the database format change, you will want to do something like
this when upgrading:
- stop running spamassassin/spamd (ie: you don't want it to be running
during the upgrade)
- run "sa-learn --rebuild", this will sync your journal. if you skip
this step, any data from the journal will be lost when the DB is
upgraded.
- upgrade SA to 3.0.0
- run "sa-learn --sync", which will cause the db format to be
upgraded.
if you want to see what is going on, you can add the "-D" option.
- test the new database by running some sample mails through
SpamAssassin, and/or at least running "sa-learn --dump" to make sure
the data looks valid.
- start running spamassassin/spamd again
======================================================
Secondly, how crucial is to upgrade amavisd-new from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3?
Thanks,
MJ
